Pros

Competitive pay, solid benefits package, great variable comp opportunities. Company mission is also very endearing.

Cons

Company has gone all in on diversity to the point diverse people are being put in positions they are not ready for at the expense of white males. Also has done a lot of mid-career hiring from top schools into middle management and they are only interested in self promotion and visibility. Servant leadership has given way to self serving leadership.
